I am a qualified Chartered Landscape Architect with over 35 years of varied commercial experience in design, construction, project management, landscape and ecological planning and management.

​

I like to specialise in 'designed ecology' or ecologically responsible design that blends aesthetic design with a sustainable and lower maintenance approach to design and long-term management.

​

My design solutions consider our changing climate and dwindling resources and are therefore cost effective whilst also being attractive, wildlife friendly and of high pollination value.

 

I was part of the Natural Environment Team at Dorset Council and finished full time employment there as Landscape Services Manager.

​

I am currently self employed carrying out a range of free lance landscape planning work for the public and private sectors. I also undertake garden design work where I like to work with experienced landscape contractors to implement my schemes. 

​

I like to sketch and paint and some of my artwork is shown on this page.
